Volgograd Airport lifted temporary restrictions on aircraft reception and release at 9:06 PM UTC on September 27th, 2025, following a 30-minute closure. The Federal Air Transport Agency had previously announced these restrictions, which were in effect between 8:07 PM and 8:37 PM UTC on the same day. This period of restricted activity occurred amidst reports of significant military movements and potential strikes. Earlier on September 27th, at 00:05 UTC, TU-95 bombers departed from the "Olenia" aerodrome in the Murmansk region, according to the @ru_avia Telegram channel. Simultaneously, over 10 strike UAVs departed the Kherson region, with flight paths indicating Kryvyi Rih as their approximate destination within the next 30 minutes, as reported by Dnipro Alerts. These developments were preceded by warnings from monitoring groups INSIDER UA and AirGuard on September 27th regarding potential Russian missile strike preparations, based on communications from Russian Air Force strategic aviation. In parallel, Ukrainian forces, specifically the 63rd Mechanized Brigade, conducted air strikes against Russian Third Army Corps positions in the Donbas region between 7:07 PM and 8:07 PM UTC on September 27th. Residents of Tartu, Estonia, also observed military equipment, including tanks, being transported by train on September 26th, 2025. The exact coordinates for the Tartu observation were 58.36991, 26.71246, as documented by research doctor Margus Punab. The Dnieper alert was issued yesterday following these reports. The Federal Air Transport Agency confirmed the restrictions at Volgograd Airport but did not immediately specify the reason for the closure.
